As a brand new season of IPL kicked off yesterday and theater, bar and nightclub owners scramble to provide the best slug fest ever, I took a few hours off to collect some of the best caricatures, both old and new, to make my own opening ceremony of IPL. The bidding of players, the glamor, the cheergirls, the celebrities and the money involved in the IPL has, in the past three years, inspired many artists to give vent to their humor through caricatures. For me personally, IPL has been entertaining not for the game itself, but for all the satire and humor surrounding it. Humor thrives on conflict and controversies, and IPL has provided them in loads. So brace yourself for a funny ride…here we go!
